Japanese golfer Mao Saigo won her first LPGA major at the Chevron Championship on Sunday, and she certainly did it the hard way.

Mao Saigo won her first LPGA tournament on Sunday, and it happened to be a major. The Japanese player won the Chevron Championship after a five-way playoff. Winning the tournament meant Saigo had to indulge in the Chevron Championship's decades-long tradition of jumping into the pond at the Nicklaus Course at The Club at Carlton Woods.

Japan's Mao Saigo was living the dream after she survived the largest major playoff in LPGA history on Sunday, beating four others in sudden death to win the Chevron Championship.
